Some coin experts say that there is less then 100,000 accented hair Kennedy half's in circulation. This places the accented hair, Kennedy half-dollar, on the same population platform as the 1893-S Morgan Silver Dollar! While the 1893 San Francisco, Morgan dollar, is celebrating its 128th birthday this year.... The Kennedy half is still in the embryonic stages of aging at just 57 years old..... The Kennedy half will turn 128 years old, in the year 2092.... I wonder what their numismatic value will be then?

NGC (EIN) Encapsulation Identification Number 145320-046 History of the Accented Hair Kennedy Half DollarOf the 3,950,762 Proofs that the Philadelphia Mint struck for the first year 1964 Kennedy half dollar, Rick Tomaska (A Guide Book of Franklin & Kennedy Half Dollars, 2018) estimates that only about 100,000 coins are of the Accented Hair variety. According to that author, this brief type was terminated after Jacqueline Kennedy inspected the new half dollars bearing her husband's portrait at the request of Mint personnel. The former First Lady objected to some of the finer hair details and recommended changes, which eventually resulted in the revised Type II design. The easiest way to differentiate between the Type I and Type II designs is to look at the hair strands directly above Kennedy's ear: on the Accented Hair variety two prominent strands in this area form a V shape that is not seen on Type II examples. Additionally, the Type I variety has a weak or broken lower left serif on the letter I in LIBERTY, as well as slight pitting and rounded edges to the shield on the eagle's breast on the reverse. Scarce in an absolute sense, the Type I Accented Hair is particularly challenging to locate in Gem and higher grades due to the prevalence of hairlines and milky spots on surviving examples.Shipping: Orders are shipped by USPS.
